any opinions or advice would be very welcome

here's my system:

Epos ELS 3 Minimonitor
Cambridge 540a amp
Rega P1 - upgraded with glass platter
cartridge - Ortofon OM2 Blue

From the Economist

"BY THE narrowest of majorities, America's Supreme Court ruled on Thursday January 21st that Congress may not bar corporations and unions from paying to disseminate political messages at election time. The ruling is arguably a blow for free speech, although critics of the decision quickly concluded that it would lead to big business buying elections."

I realize that one cannot use the protractors like with the pivot arms..but what tools do I need, and how do I do this thing?

A good friend of mine is asking for some advice (for a friend) regarding an custom AV installer called MediaCraft (http://www.mediacraftav.com/) Her friend is building a house in VA and wants to do a $15,000 small home theater plus a few multi-zone audio locations. Does anyone have experience with Media Craft? They look okay to me, but I thought I would post here first.....................
